Ace / big box hardware stores have the rubber coated hooks that can be attached / hung from ceiling. I have several sets I bought, just never got around to hanging them

I hang mine rods from the basement rafters. I cut up wire coat hangers, shaped them like a 'J' and made a loop for the screw with needlenose pliers.
aside from the wife being pissed that I doubled up a couple of her shirts for hangers, it was cost free and works like a champ.

**use screws when going into rafters, hammering in nails can crack grout or wallboard above.

if you mount the j hooks up high on the joists it may give you enough headroom

third ditto. They also make them flat with a little upturn on the end. Job Lot has them cheap.
